Report
BACKGROUND
City Charter section 1003 states that each of the boards and commissions of the City shall hold regular meetings as required by ordinance. City Code section 2.120.030 states that each board or commission shall hold regular meetings at the times and on the days indicated by resolution of the City Council, and that such resolutions may be amended from time to time by further Council resolution.
Resolution 24-9395 (Attachment 1) which was adopted by the City Council on November 19, 2024 states that the Board of Library Trustees shall hold ten (10) Board of Library Trustee meetings per year, to meet monthly except January and July, set on the first Monday of every month and subject to the cancellation at the discretion of the City Manager for agenda management purposes. Resolution 24-9395 is the most recent resolution passed related to Board of Library Trustees Calendar.
DISCUSSION
At the September 8, 2025 Board of Library Trustees meeting, the Board approved a proposed calendar of meetings for 2026 (Attachment 2), and recommended Council approval of the Draft Resolution (Attachment 3).
The proposed calendar of meetings for 2026 specifies that two of the ten Board of Library Trustees meetings for 2025 will take place at the Mission Branch Library, and two at the Northside Branch Library, while the remaining six meetings will remain at Central Park Library.
The Draft Resolution establishes that the Board of Library Trustees Calendar for 2026 will include ten (10) meetings to be held at 6:00 p.m. on the first Monday of each month, with the exception of the months of January and July which shall not have meetings. The Resolution also provides that should the first Monday fall on a City holiday, the meeting would be held on the next non-holiday Monday.
